AWG> Please don't do that. I use Kdrive (Xfbdev) with tslib. Old binaries and source code will not magically disappear :) Given amount of changes in Kdrive last couple of years new versions of X server don't bring anything valuable to Xfbdev. AWG> Xfbdev + tslib is extremely useful for embedded systems without AWG> keyboard, which are driven by a pen. This is the case for many new AWG> smart phones for example. Are there new smartphones which don't feature hardware-accelerated graphics? Xfbdev is quite useless for anything except plain old framebuffer. There was CELF project proposal this year targeting optimization of Xfree86 server to match memory consumption of Kdrive, while keeping KMS, newer Xrandr and other features valuable for embedded development. This project was rejected by the CELF board due to lack of funds. If you are worried about the development of X server and somehow connected to smartphones development industry you might want to propose funding of this proposal instead of reviving Kdrive. -- http://fossarchy.blogspot.com/
